Sir Christopher Wren’s House in Windsor was both designed and inhabited by the famous architect who chose to build the house in a prime location overlooking the Thames and with a view of Windsor Castle. Today, the house is a hotel, but great care has been taken to preserve the original features of the house including the floor to ceiling oak panelling above the fireplace in the hotel’s Oak room. Later owners of the house also left their mark on its architectural splendour and it is well worth a visit.
